Flickr - add links in Annotations? #1462

Open ps2270 opened 4 years ago

ps2270 commented 4 years ago

@thuchacz asks: I wonder whether it's worthwhile to include in each annotation a link to the full flickr album (or at least the album title) so that users can more easily navigate there. Otherwise, our Flickr is too unwieldy to be useful.

PHS: this is a good point, try to do it in final annotation cleanup?

I'm not sure Flickr is going to survive many more years. Couldn't we transfer those images to AWS before we include links?

ps2270 commented 4 years ago

that would certainly be ideal.

@tcatapano - can you advise?

Whatever we do, I think we can (and should) wait on this. It is something we can perhaps have interns or workstudy help with.

Another route is to ensure that field notes linked in the annotation have the link to the flickr album - this lessens the urgency of long-term preservation

ps2270 commented 4 years ago

Yes, it is not high priority. But the preservation of the images, and links to them, if Flickr disappears, is pretty important. I think they are stored on hard drives, right? But that obviously doesn't help for the field note images.

Yes, all albums are backed up to local hard drives. They are also uploaded to s3 buckets in AWS.

WHICH I NOW REALIZE MEANS WE SHOULD HAVE ALL IMAGES IN AWS ALREADY.

However:

  1. we need to check on how they are organized (can't remember if the backup from flickr preserves album organization).
  2. AWS s3 is a storage system only. It is not a platform for viewing or interacting with files, esp images. If we want them publicly available, they will need to be deployed somewhere. One option we had discussed a few times is uploading all annotation albums to Academic Commons, which would allow viewing, interaction, and download.
